Crisis Nursery of the Ozarks

Hi there!

My name is Tyler Ray, a commercial real estate agent with Moreno Group Commercial Realty based out of Springfield, MO. I am a born and raised Springfield native. Over the last 7 years, I have grown a strong passion for fitness and endurance which introduced me to the world of Ultra-Running in 2023. During 2023, I completed two ultra-runs: the Bad Dawg 50k and Rockbridge Revenge 50k event alongside other numerous races.

Fast forward to March of this year, I found out I was going to be a first-time father. Upon finding out came the initial excitement and shock of wondering "Am I ready to be a dad?" With the joy and excitement of finding out about my upcoming journey to fatherhood, I began to think about the endless issues that millions of kids' nation and worldwide face such as abuse, neglect and safety. After lengthy conversations with my girlfriend, who had previously volunteered at this non-profit, I elected to partner with Isabel's House Crisis Nursery to raise money for kids in our community!

Did you know? Isabel's House: Crisis Nursery of the Ozarks opened its doors on June 25, 2007.

Since opening their doors and arms, they have lovingly cared for more than 5,000 children and served more than 2,000 families! They provide 24/7/365 childcare to those in need in our community.

To bring awareness to these issues, I am running the Iron Will 50 Miler on September 7th in Junction City, Kansas. This is a non-stop 50-mile ultra endurance event. My goal is to raise $5,000.00 for Isabel's House to help provide additional resources they need to provide their exceptional care around the clock.

Whether you choose to donate $1 or $100, your donation will be greatly appreciated as we partner with Isabel's House to bring awareness to child abuse and neglect! All donations are tax-deductible. We appreciate your time and consideration to this request!
